Cutting Down the Territories,

The old scheme of portiOning out the
territory of Idaho is to be revamped at
the present session OF congress. Senator
Vorhees, of Indiana, lis anxious to have the
Occur d'Alene district added to WASH
ington territory to advance the chances
of his son, Delegate Voorhees,, of Olym-
pia, for the senatOrship. Senator Stew
art, who represents the pocket borough
of Nevada, is equally anxious to add pop
ulation and farming lands to the sage
brush and quartzite of his state.
With equal generosity he proposes to
take the southern portion of Idaho and
add it to Nevada. The two senator's
have accordingly joined hands in u
scheme which, il carried into effect,
would wipe the political subdivision of
Idaho from the map of the west.
No western state can honestly favor
any such measure. Idaho now contains
$1,000 square miles of territory within
its boundaries. 1t is growing rapidly
and steadily. Diversified in it's climate,
its topography and its agricultural and
mineral wealth, it is attracting immi-
SfdOlOu Ou lIo LuoilJS, anu DluS lhir
within the next five years to put in its
claim for statehood on showing which
will compel recognition. To destroy its
identity to advance the personal inter-
ests of a brace of ambitious politicians
would be national crime.
1t would be crime, because uncalled
for by any rational demand. Both
Washington and Nevada are now each
nearly as large as the whole of New
England. There is no necessity
for their enlargement, no de-
mand from their people, no
call from the country at large. 1t
would be q crime against the west be-
cause that immense section now lying be,
tween the Missouri and Pacific slope is al
ready permanently subdivided into states
and into territories which will become
states, each of which is so large that
when compared with an equal politlca
area of the east, eastern prepOnderance
in the senate as against the west is as
| sured for all time to come. Western in
terests demand that this inequality
shall not be increased. The blottinG
out of any territory by its division
| among other territories means in the
| lear future the loss of two senators and
| an undetermined number OF congress
men to the west. 1t will not do.

Typical Nebraska Cities.
Hastings Gdsette-Journal.


The marvellous growth OF the state Of
Nebraska is Illustrated by her cities,
any one of which would honor the en-
terprise of any OF the older states.
First on the list Of Nebraska's youngest
giants, as her representative cities may
properly be designated, comes Omaha,
the gate city of the west, through which
two-thirds OF the commerce and traffic
OF the country flows from east to west Or
from west to eastY In many respects
Omaha is the representative city of the
west. With its round hundred thousand
people, its magnificent paved streets
the finest in the cOuntry-its eight and
ten-story business blocks, its metropoli-
tan newspapers, its immense wholesale
trade extending into every part of the
great west, Omaha is indeed entitled to
the distinction of being the representa-
tive city of the west. She is destined
to become the metropolis Of the 'new
empire" which is growing west OF the
Mississippi, and in few years no city
west of Chicago will contest her suprem-
acy.
Next comes Lincoln, the capital city.
Lincoln is undoubtedly the handsomest
city in the state and right royalty does
she carry the dignity of her position.
She has population OF nearly 10000
and is Just beginning to grow. Her
prospects are brilliant, and she labors

The Late Daniel Manning.

The custom, perhaps "more honored
in the breach than in the OBJ
servance," which requires that only
good be spoken OF the dead, will doubt
less be very generally regarded in the
references that will be made to the late
Daniel Manning, ex-secretary Of the
treasury, whose death occurred on Sat
urday. Although in no large sense
great man, he possessed qualities of
mind and character that placed him
above the average of men, and gave him
within q not very extended circle an
influence perhaps greater than was ex-
ercised by any other with whom he was
Immediately associated. His political
education had not been acquired
in the worthiest OF schools, for
democratic councils at Albany
during the period when Mr.. Manning
was obtaining his knowledge of politi-
cal methods and management, were
dominated by about the most unscrupu-
lous politicians New York or any other
state has ever known. For a consider
able part of this time Tweed was the
anu
as the manager OF the organ of democ-
racy at the state capital camo constantly
in contact with that infamous boss. 1t
does not appear, however. that Mr..
Manning was seriously contaminated by
this association, though undoubtedly it
was lot Improbable to him in a business
way. Eut its principal advantage to
him was in the kaowlodge it gave him
of the inside work of politics, the bust
ness of organization. and the methods by
which the political machine is operated.
This instruction he used to good pur-
pose, but being a politician of much
higher instincts than those he had
learned OF his political work was con-
Quoted on a'much more elevated plane.
He attained his ascendency in the

Van Amburg's Eye.

When Delmonico, the negro lion
tanner, was asked what influence the
human eye had on villa beasts, he said:
Il should say about tho same influence
the eve of one man has on another, and
proceeded to illustrate this by Il story of
Van Amburg, the great lion-tamer. The
latter, on one occasion, while in an
American barron, was asked how he got
his wonderful power over animals. He
replied, "It is by my showing them that
am not in the least afraid OF them,
by keeping my eye steadily on theirs,
III give you an example of the power OF
my eye" Pointing TO a loutish fellow
who was sitting opposite, Won Alnbucgh
said: .You see that fellow? He's II reg
ular clown. III make him come across
the room to me, and l won't say n word
to him. Sitting down, Van Amburgh
fixed his keen, steady eye on the man.
Presently the fellow Strengthened him
self, gradually got up, and came, across.
When he got close enough he drew
back his arm and struck the tanner a
tremendous blow under the chin, knock
ing him clear over the chair, with the
remark, "You stare at me like that
again, will you?"

force of superior capacity for the work
OF politics, in the pursuit Of which it
has never been shown that he did any
thing dishonorable, from the politician s
point OF view.
Mr.. Manning was conceded to be the
most useful supporter of Mr.. Cleveland
in the presidential campaign Of
1884. While Cleveland had not
been his first choice, when he
decided to support him he
gave to his cause the utmost interest
and zeal. 1t was through his exertions
that n Cleveland delegation was chosen
in New York, he was most diligent in
behalf of his candidate in the national
convention, and he was a force every
where felt in the party throughout the
campaign. Mr.. Cleveland's apprecia-
tion Of his services was shown in APP
pointing him secretary of the treasury,
u position for which few could have sup
posed he had any qualifications. 1t is
unnecessary here to review his career
in that office, which there is reason to
believe was something Of disappoint-
ment to him, since he found his policy
at nearly all points antagonized by the
majority of his party. He showed con-
siderable familiarity with principles of
finance and political economy, and a
rather marked ability in discussing
them, but his standpoint of observation
having always been Wall street, his
range was necessarily narrow. 1t was
undoubtedly n fortunate thing for the
country that he retired when he did
from the treasury department, for had
the policy he was pursuing been con-
tinued Il financial crisis could hardly
ready given expression to its disapproval
of that policy, and as soon as possible
after Mr.. Manning had turned over the
duties of the Office to his assistant, the
present secretary, the latter adopted a
different policy, with results entirely
satisfactory to the government and the
people.
1t is not to be doubted that Mr.. Man
ming was of great service to the presi-
dent as a political adviser and very
likely prevented a great many more
mistakes than were made during the
first year of the administration. 1t is
also very likely that Mr.. Cleveland has
anxiously hoped to again have his po.
litical assistance, and on this, as we'll as
on personal grounds, will keenly regret
his death. 1t may make very mate.
rial difference to the democracy in New
York unless they shall be able to find 8
man equally competent in organization
and equally Jealous and interchangeable
The death of Mr.. Manning is in
deed rather u party than a national
loss. He has been an active, skillfu
and moderately successful politician o.
the better class, but had exhibited nc
| great qualities of craftsmanship from
which there might have been expected
valuable benefit to the country had he
lived and remained in it's service.

The driver was seized with a scheme

ITtranspires that the somewhat motor
;ous Mr.. Higgins did not make n sacri-
flee to public clamor when he re-
signed his position of appoint
mcnt clerk in the treasury department,
but merely dropped one bone to pick
up another with more meat on it. 1t is
said that he is to have fat Office in
Maryland, where there will be no re-
straint upon his political activity, and
he can do the work of the German
machine more zealously and effectively.
The Maryland democratic boss received
a pretty vigorous warning at the late
election, and he evidently intends to be
in his best lighting condition when the
next battle of the ballots takes place.
Therefore he wants Higgins to be unfet-
tered by any civil service Jules or other
conditions putting limitations upon his
special usefulness.

A LINCOLN paper which imagines
that the only way to build up the town
Is by tearing down Omaha has figured
out the present population of Omaha to
be about 10000. In other words, the
population of this city has decreased
by over $1,000 since the census of 1885.
The fact that Omaha has built over five
thousand dwelling houses within the
past three years, and all Of them are oc-
cupied, would seem to throw some doubt
on the figures of our contemporary at
the state capital.
